Bubble ManiaPrice: Free
In this action puzzle game, you attempt to pop colored bubbles that move towards you. Let them get to the bottom of the screen and your game is over. To pop the bubbles, you'll throw all kinds of things: swamps, airships, islands. Gems and coins help you power up to make your way through all 100 levels.

Earn to DiePrice: $0.99
A zombie outbreak has spread throughout the world and you need to flee. The only way to do it is by driving across the zombie-infested landscape, which means mowing down the undead with your car. As you do, you'll learn cash that lets you upgrade your vehicle, add weapons, and much more.

Fruit NinjaPrice: $0.99
One the iOS' most addictive games, Fruit Ninja lets you swipe across the screen to slice fruit that's been thrown into the air into little pieces. The more you slice, the more points you earn--just make sure to avoid the bombs. Multiple gameplay modes (including head-to-head over GameCenter), customizable swords, and special bananas that add unusual effects make Fruit Ninja endlessly replayable fun.

WordTagPrice: Free or $1.99
Challenge your friends and their vocabulary with this game. Begin by picking a word and adding a clue. Then six words are locked out of use in the description.
